Problems solved by technology
A key limitation of touchpads is that touchpads are relatively mapped to the display unit.
For example, when the user touches the touchpad, the touchpad converts the input data into relative coordinate values causing a delayed access to user interface objects of the user interface being shown on a display screen.
This limitation can cause areas of the touchpad to not correspond to the user interface input objects without further effort from the user and can cause undue distraction, inefficacy, and frustration for the user, especially in the case of a driver of the vehicle.

A method and system for providing absolute coordinate mapping using zone mapping input in a vehicle includes determining a touch input received on a touchpad located in the vehicle, presenting an absolute mapped position of the touch input on a display screen located in the vehicle, presenting one or more user interface objects on the display screen, and providing a plurality of display input zones corresponding to one or more user interface objects presented on the display screen. The method and system further include determining a user input to one of the one or more user interface objects presented on the display screen based on the absolute mapped position of the touch input on at least one of the one or more user interface objects presented on the display screen, and the plurality of display input zones on the display screen.
Description
BACKGROUND[0001]Vehicles are often equipped with a display unit or units located at the vehicle dash board or other area of the vehicle that are utilized to provide various user interfaces to vehicle occupants. Many of the user interfaces have different formats and layouts that present users with various shapes, sizes, and locations of input icons through the display unit. In many instances, these display units are operably connected to a touchpad that is remotely located within the vehicle (e.g., in the center panel of the vehicle) in order to provide inputs to the input icons on the graphical user interfaces.[0002]A key limitation of touchpads is that touchpads are relatively mapped to the display unit. For example, when the user touches the touchpad, the touchpad converts the input data into relative coordinate values causing a delayed access to user interface objects of the user interface being shown on a display screen. In other words, a touch input on a touchpad is not registe...
